τῷ μὲν γὰρ αὔξειν ἐθέλειν τὰς αὑτῶν πατρίδας καὶ τὰ ὑπάρχοντα κοσμεῖν οὐδ᾽ ἂν εἷς νεμεσήσειεν, ὃ δὲ τούτῳ πρόσεστιν ἀηδίας ἀφελεῖν ἔγωγε συμβουλεύω. ἔσται δὲ τοῦτο εἴπω βούλεσθε πῶς; ἀλλ᾽ ὅπως ἀκούσεσθε εὐμενῶς: ἐὰν, ὦ μακάριοι, τοῦ θαυμάζειν τοὺς λίθους ἀνῆτε μικρόν τι καὶ νομίσητε πλείονος ἀξίους ὑμᾶς αὐτοὺς τῶν οἰκοδομημάτων καὶ πιστεύσητε ἀληθὲς εἶναι τὸ πάλαι τοῦτο, ὡς ἄρα οὐ τείχη οὐδὲ ᾠδεῖα οὐδὲ στοαὶ οὐδὲ ὁ τῶν ἀψύχων κόσμος αἱ πόλεις εἶεν, ἀλλ᾽ ἄνδρες αὑτοῖς εἰδότες θαρρεῖν
